College of Washington.)
Japanese Proverb
"Make sure of a thrifty wife, even
you have to wear your shoes out
looking for her.
White to Wear
Although this is undoubtedly
•son of gay colors, every woman wants
at least one white dress in her supply
of hot weather clothes. Crepe de chine
is always pretty because it drapes ,
so gracefully, and it will wash like a |
handkerchief. The name crepe comes 1
from the Latin word "crispere , "to j
curl , and de chine is French for |
"of China".

The crepe-ness is made 1
in the weaving by what is known as
a "worsted twist" of the weft threads, I
I saw some imported Swiss organ-1
dies advertised the other day for 35 c, I
which is exceedingly cheap for that I
goods. It launders so beautifully that
it makes a good wash dress. The
same store had what purported to be |
imported dress linen for 65c—usually .
only to be had at about twice that if
pure linen. So you see this is bar-|
gain time for thin goods. The name
"hnen", comes from the Latin word
linum t ' the fibre in the flax stalk
from which it is made. 1 he art linen |
usually has a round thread instead of
flat, so that the warp may be easily
drawn. Linen was worn before the
earliest historical records, for it has
been identified in the wrapings of the
oldest mummies in the pyramids, !
priests and kings who lived thousands !
of years before Christ. Ireland is the
chief linen manufacturing country,
though Germany makes a great deal
of a much coarser sort; Scotland,
France and Belgium finer varieties.
Little squares woven specially for nap
kins or serviettes are made a specialty
by the linen weavers of Japan, the
Philippines and Tenericliffe. The Jap
anese are clever in introducing linen
substitutes, and in the coarser crashes
hemp is often introduced by linen
Weavers.

To Montana
Grain Growers
Harvest time comes but once
each year. If hail comes before
harvest it may destroy your crop in
a few minutes.
The risk of hail damage may be
greatly reduced by securing hail
insurance from the State Board Of
Hail Insurance which has distrib
uted over $ 1 , 100,000 to farmers
during the last eiffht years. This
is a much greater amount than
paid out by any other agency.
State hail insurance payments
hre not subject to garnishment or
attachment, but may be assigned.
Application for hail insurance on
grain must be made to the assessor
of the county in which the grain is
growing. Full information will be
furnished by any assessor or by the
STATE BOARD OF HAIL
INSURANCE.

Insomnia
**
-
Many apparently healthy people are
troubled with insomnia. It is not al
ways easy to locate the cause in any
individual case.
Even though one re
gards himself as perfectly healthy,
careful examination may reveal the
beginning of disease. The abnormal
wakefulness may be a symptom of
faulty functioning of one or more or
the
treatment of the insomnia is the treat
ment of the abnormal condition on
If no disease is present, the habits
should be carefully investigated. Some (
people are wakeful because they in- j
dulge in tea or coffee, or use too much |
tobacco near bedtime. These some
gans. When this is the case,
which it is based.
times result in a nervous stimulation
that makes sleep impossible. Much
mental effort during the evening may |
also make the mind too active for
sleep.
Late Meal a Cause
The cause sometimes consists in eat
ing too heartily a short time before j
going to bed. This is especially likely
to be true if there is any tendency to
digestive disturbances. On the other
hand, some people have difficulty in
sleeping if they are hungry. In such
eases, a glass of milk and a cacker , 1
cases, a glass of milk and a cracker,
A bedroom that is too hot, or poorly
ventilated, may cause restlessness.
So may a bed that is too soft, too well
covered, or otherwise uncomfortable.
Efforts to overcome insomnia by
means of drugs are usually unsatis
factory and dangerous. Many sleep 1
producing drugs are habit-forming.
They should be avoided except when
prescribed by a physician. A warm
bath, a hot foot bath, and sponging
the head with cool water before going
to bed are safer remedies. And the
I
.
sleep produced by these simple meas
ures is natural and refreshing.
But the cause of the insomnia should
be sought in the habits or in the pres- j
ence of some beginning disease. Re-,
moving the cause is the best way to a
cure.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Eyelashes Turn in
Mrs. W. D. writes: "My lower eye
lid seems to be turned in so that the I
■
eyelashes grow into the eye. The eye
is always sore because the eyelashes
keep scratching it. Somteimes I can
pull some of the lashes out but they
grow back again. Is there anything I
can do to stop them from growing like
this?"
Reply—This can be corrected by an
operation on the eyelid.
If you object to this little operation,
you can have the lashes pulled out
when they bother you. Or, you can
draw down the eyelid with a piece of
adhesive tape so that the lid margin
will be turned out and the lashes kept
from scratching the eye. Operation is
the best.

To Purify W'ater
R. G. S. asks: "Will you tell me
what it is that can be put into water
to purify it? Someone has told me
that there is something that one can
carry on trips that you can use in
water when you don't know whether
it is pure or not."
Reply—Halazone tablets are used
for this purpose. They liberate chlorin
in the water. Your druggist can sup
ply them.

and seem to be in fairly good health.
too fast. It beats
But my heart beats
90 times a minute and it beats that
t
fast even when I am not exercising.
What would cause it to beat so fast?"
Reply—Some people normally have
a more rapid heart action than others.
Any weakness in the heart muscles
may cause the heart to beat fast. It
makes up in the number of beats the
power that it lacks in each beat. The
weakness of the muscle may be caused
b Y infection or valvular disease,
Over-activity of the thyroid often
causes a rapid heart. Fever, such as
that occurring in tuberculosis and the
toxins of some diseases, may increase
the number of beats. Tobacco or
coffee may be the cause.

fare and one-third will be charged per
sons going to Helena from any dis
tance up to 160 miles and that a one

This reduction in rates makes it
possible for people from the eastern
